French doors throughout the main level interior enhance the indoor-outdoor connection, with the family room leading directly to a slate patio, lush garden, and pool—ideal for entertaining and relaxed living. Historic details such as soaring ceilings, Crown and picture moldings, and two wood-burning fireplaces add warmth and sophistication. A sunroom surrounded by three walls of windows provides a serene, light-filled retreat year-round. Upstairs, the second level primary suite offers a fireplace flanked by French doors and a newly expanded spa-like bath. Two additional large bedrooms feature adjacent sitting or study areas with garden views and a renovated Jack and Jill bath. The third level includes two bedrooms and a full hall bath—perfect for guests, offices, or creative spaces. The lower level, which includes a sauna, full bath and is easily finished to add even more flexible living or perfect for a home gym. With five bedrooms, four and a half bathrooms, formal and casual living and dining rooms, extraordinary indoor-outdoor flow, this one-of-a-kind Wardman home offers rare character, modern comfort, and a coveted setting.
